BeeAre: Too many alternate titles to count. So many ideas with masks and real people and robots and how hate and anger are too often simulated to further someone else's idea. One thing I noticed and liked, however: we see each of the current three players on Team Bad Guy as examples of various forms of the page title. So I thought I would bring attention to that idea. It's kinda neat. ...I mean, I like it. Don't want to go off the deep end into MSG4 "War Has Changed" stuff with you guys. Unless you independently want to. Go nuts!

Sam V. Buttercup seems really 1 sided. seems like her machinery can compete with buttercups chemical X powers. shes looking alot worse than when she was last scene making that death threat to butter cup. shes now missing like 4 teeth and half her face. synthetic flesh torn. blood dripping. not saying i want sam to win but dont make it such a stomp. have buttercup at least bleed some. heck even Mandark managed to get blossom to bleed. infact he later even killed her by drowning her (with water) in a death trap.

by the way how much of a robot is sam now? im guessing shes sort of a "terminator" now. but is thier anything left of her human self? we know she was born a human girl and she became the ring leader of street gang that uses their "robot mons" for juvenile mischeif and crime .. (medabots anime) at some point she graduated to major league crime and got involved with cluster /dark star council. (PPGD) at that time i remember seeing her with 1 robot arm after her 1st fight with butter cup and shes says she wanted to be "fullmetal". is her brain still there or did she import her memories into a computer brain? also would she still have a "soul" were she to die at this point?

"We all wear masks, but which one is real? The one that hides your face, or the one that is your face?"- Green Goblin, Spectacular Spider-Man

Just something of which this page reminded me.

Everyone's got her (or his) battle face on now, as though they weren't already ready to be serious. That seems odd, given the nature of the fights so far: I'd have thought the kid gloves were already off, literally in Sam's case, although in her case all she's suffered are flesh wounds -- and underneath that is cold, hard steel.

I take it from Blossom's calmness that she has a plan. I hope it consists of more than keeping Bell's and Gir's attention on her, instead of on setting the bomb so it can go off -- because with both of them ready to attack, that diversion may not last very long. We have seen Bell beat Blossom before, and it wasn't pretty then, when Bell was being silly and playful about it. Now she's ready to Punctuate for Emphasis.

Finally, on the "Programmable Hatred" front, I would like to note that truth and a better solution can often be found behind and beyond the programming. Regardless of whether or not Blossom succeeds in showing Bell that they can be friends despite fighting on opposing sides, we do know the bomb goes off, unfortunately. I wonder if Bell's hairband is magnetic, or if it can be knocked off.

Also, good callback with the Sherlock thing. Is Bell going to be a more or less focused fighter now?

If they use the sword the way it was in the show then no. If you remember back to the episode in which Aku turned human size and fought Jack. Aku actually takes the sword away from him and try’s to stab Jack but it does not harm him. This was due to the sword cannot harm those of good but only evil.

Wow Bell has so much more beautiful long hair than i thought so made and serious yet still Cute if i was her opponent i would probably not even notice i died cause i was to busy adoring her :3 i love cute to much thank god...Something tells me Bells fighting Style is going to change drastically "hypothetically" or "metaphorically" i dont know which words the right one go super sayian and make Blossom get so scared she wets herself i know i would if someone magically put me into this comic

From what we know from BR, the brain is still left.

What other cyborgs have that sort of trait? The "only the Brain left" part, I can only think of Cybermen for some reason.

The specific term for such a cyborg is a "full body cyborg", in which the brain is really the only thing human left. The "full body replacement" cyborgs in the Anime "Ghost in the Shell" have this. Briareos Hecatonchires from Appleseed is one. Iron Man and War Machine have spent time like this. General Gervious from Star Wars, although he does have his heart still. Robo Cop has quite a bit, although his spinal cord and most of the face is intact. Just about any Alastair Reynolds novel. I think the Tin Woodsman from The Wizard of Oz. You could count the Dragoons from Starcraft, but that completely depends on the extent of damage done to the protoss who was put into it.

Those are the ones that I have been able to find. This is a rather extreme field of cybernetics, and not many touch on it, either preferring to go all the way to robot, or your traditional cyborg.
